Chiappa M1-9 Carbine Wood Stock 9mm Non-Restricted

[staff]

I have the wood stock model, only one jam in200 rounds.
Would be nice if it was easier to mount a small red dot or other scope

Nobody wanted the bad reviews of this carbine to be biased and wrong more than me lol
Until I saw one first hand. Maybe they aren't all bad and one two are junk but the one I saw had a stoppage of some kind or another every 3-6 rounds.
Just problem after problem.
I thought there was a better quality M1 9mm Carbine? There is the Chiappa but wasn't there another maker of it? Maybe I'm mistaken?

I just acquired a synthetic one. Brought it to the range with a buddy who loves the carbines. It can be a tad finicky until you figure it out. Not really my thing however he wanted it so I traded him that and a tactical 870 I had on the EE. We went to a LGS where I hand selected a new Marlin 1894 in 44mag which he paid for. He also threw in a 1000 round case of Wolf 7.62x39 ammo. We are both happy so all is good in the world. As for the carbine, it's a decent rifle for the price.

Besides the Milsurp ones there are others made in .30 carbine. (Auto Ordinance comes to mind) I think this is the only one chambered in 9mm

Aye, that sucks. I like the M1 Carbine design and concept. Not anywhere near as a service rifle/cartridge but as a short range varmint, field, ranch, target shooting all around general purpose handy rifle it's a great design! The only reason I never chased an actual one was the caliber. 30 carbine is very specific, uncommon and expensive (almost a buck a round after taxes in Canada!)
Having one chambered in 9mm solves that issue a hundred fold. Too bad they are not reliable. There's nothing that irks me more than dropping cash on a rifle and having nothing but problems, even if the dealer refunds etc it's the build up/let down and disappointment that gets me lol

I think the Chiappa M1-9 is one of the best bang for buck PCC's on the Canadian market. Not everyone has 1k burning in their pocket to buy a PCC. The M1-9 is an affordable carbine which to be honest you are probably buying it for the look anyways.

I really want to like these, mine the Bolt snapped in half! Got it replaced under warranty. Was a known issue at the time, I hope that issue is fixed, as I liked it. Would buy another..as per, yes, the price was good. But wouldnt rely on it to save your *ss out in the bush or anything. Hopefully they stepped up QC a bit. What are they selling for now?

[Bigbubba]

We just received a shipment of these.

who are the stocking dealers?

feeding problems, lots of feeding problem. I got one, keep finding solutions. So far no luck

BTW, the rear sight keep dropping off. It let me have a chance to put a red dot on it. Need 11mm adaptor.
